Linda Plengemeier: 25+ Years of Service

Linda Plengemeier, HELM’s Vice President and Treasurer for over 25 years, retired on June 30, 2015.

Dennis Landon, HELM’s former President, had these words to say,

LIndaI am grateful for her love for the church, her commitment to HELM’s mission, her candor, her absolute integrity, and her willingness to tell me when she thought I was wrong. I could not have wished for a better colleague, collaborator or friend.

The staff at HELM, their Directors, and many others would like to thank Linda for her service to the organization.

Linda, we wish you well. The office will never be the same. Congratulations Linda!
